When did Kendrick Lamar win the Pulitzer music prize?

Kendrick Lamar won the Pulitzer Prize for music for his album Damn on April 16, 2018, making history as the first non-classical or jazz artist to win the prestigious award.

The rapper is also the most commercially successful musician to receive the award, usually reserved for critically acclaimed classical acts who don't feature in the charts.

The Pulitzer board said the album is "a virtuosic song collection unified by its vernacular authenticity and rhythmic dynamism that offers affecting vignettes capturing the complexity of modern African-American life."

What are the lyrics to Humble?

Nobody pray for me

Even a day for me

Way (yeah, yeah!)

Ay, I remember syrup sandwiches and crime allowances

Finesse a n*** with some counterfeits

But now I'm countin' this

Parmesan where my accountant lives

In fact, I'm downin' this

D'USSÉ with my boo bae, tastes like Kool-Aid for the analysts
Girl, I can buy yo' ass the world with my paystub
Ooh, that p*** good, won't you sit it on my taste bloods?
I get way too petty once you let me do the extras

Pull up on your block, then break it down: we playin' Tetris

A.M. to the P.M., P.M. to the A.M., funk

P*** out your per diem, you just gotta hate 'em, funk

If I quit your BM, I still ride Mercedes, funk

If I quit this season, I still be the greatest, funk

My left stroke just went viral
Right stroke…

CHORUS:

B****, be humble (hol’ up, b****)

Sit down (hol’ up, lil', hol’ up, lil' b****)

Be humble (hol' up, b****)

Sit down (hol' up, sit down, lil’, sit down, lil' b****)

Be humble (hol' up, hol' up)

B****, sit down (hol' up, hol' up, lil' b****)

Be humble (lil' b****, hol' up, b****)

Sit down (hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up)

Be humble (hol' up, hol' up)

Sit down (hol' up, hol' up, lil', hol' up, lil' b****)

Be humble (hol' up, b****)

Sit down (hol' up, sit down, lil', sit down, lil' b****)

Be humble (hol' up, hol' up)

B****, sit down (hol' up, hol' up, lil' b****)

Be humble (lil' b****, hol' up, b****)

Sit down (hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up)
